      @ Feliz and Wesley: 1.6 volts (or 4 or 5) would of course not deliver anything like 350 amps through your body. If it did, that would severally burn, if not kill, you instantly (depending on what part of your body the current is passing through).Just because a circuit is _capable_ of delivering 350 (or 1000) amps doesn't mean that it actually _will_ in any given situation. Obviously, the amount of current that can be delivered depends largely on the resistance of the circuit. A 12-volt car battery can deliver 1,000 amps of current. But of course it won't deliver anywhere near that much current if you are merely touching the battery terminals. Your body has too much resistance to allow much current to flow at that voltage.

    FYI, I've done this type of thing countless times with a 600/5 25 pound Current Transformer backfed with 120 VAC. That current transformer is wound with #12 wire, and I've got a 1/0 cable as a single turn secondary. This setup generates a measured 1100 Amps while pulling 12 Amps out of the AC power plug. Bottom line, the video demo does have high current, but it isn't 1000 Amps. That 1100 Amps will heat up the 1/0 cable to the point of smoking the insulation in under 30 seconds. As far as being dangerous, it is only dangerous if those leads touch something like a wedding ring!

    Finally the device we have all been waiting for. The solution to every experimenters problem. The device everyone needs on his work bench for all those times when he needs to melt pennies or Coca-Cola cans. But don't forget... Never use an outlet strip with a switch. Control the transformer ONLY by manipulating the AC plug. Also, keep all wires short, and all components as close as possible to the output arc.

      @@purplegravy1 Absolutely no! Current is killing but only when theres enough voltage to force it through your body. The reason why that junk has over 1000A is because that thick wire has very low resistance (maybe around 2mΩ) so 1.6 volts is enough to induce 1000+A when theres no load. Even tongue has enough resistance to keep you alive. You would need a hundreds megawatts of power to kill you with this shit and that would actually burn this to coal even before touching you.

    Looking through the comments and clearly there are a lot of folks who don’t understand the basics of electricity. Yes, the volts are low, but it is not voltage that is dangerous. Amps will kill you. This is a crazy dangerous experiment. Not saying I wouldn’t do it, very similar to the microwave welder projects on TH-cam. Still, I hope nobody making the comments on here about “that kind of voltage won’t hurt you” or “that amperage is only dangerous with higher amperage” Anyways I see this is old video. So you must know what you’re doing by now and are still alive. Thanks for your experiments

      @kreynolds1123 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      To the supply, the primary coil has inductive impedance when the secondary has infinite resistance. Impedence is sort of like resistance to alternating currents. The impedance on the primary drops when the secondary coil is under load.
      When the secondary is physically shorted, there is still a small amount of copper resistance. If that resistance is .001 ohms then at 1.6vc you will have 1000 amps along with 1600 watts in the secondary,
      At a reasonable 95% efficient power transfer from the primary to the secondary means you have to feed in 1684.2 watts to the primary.
      If your source voltage to the primary is 240 vac, then the amperage is about 7 amps on the primary.
      A 240vac to 1.6vac transformer needs 150 turns on the primary for every turn on the secondary. On the other hand, a 120vac to 1.6vac transformer needs 75 turns on the primary for every turn on the secondary. There needs to be enough iron or ferrite in the transformer core to give it high inductive impedance.

      The coin’s electrical resistance is very low (less than a fraction of an ohm), so it conducts enough electricity to melt itself. However, your hands have very high resistance (up to 100,000 ohms), so the electricity just can’t flow through to shock you. Look up Ohm’s Law.

    voltage or current alone won´t kill anybody ... a paralyser can provide 400 000 volts and higher but you won´t die from it because it also supplies very low current way lower than 1 milliamp. You won´t die from pure current or pure voltage, but they need to be intertwined to have an effect on you. Voltage is the force that makes current pass through resistance and the effect of current is what kills you. But the human dry skin has a relatively large resistance of approximately 200 000 ohms so a relatively large voltage is required to make lethal currents pass trough your body , which are starting around 100 milliamps. So if he has a 1,7 V voltage output from his transformer, that is way lower to pass any significant current though his body to have an effect to him. At least around 35V of AC voltage would be needed and that also is dependant on many factors like humidity of his skin, wounds and so on. The only way he could die from this output is if he wore medieval metal armor and put the cables across it so he would be cooked to death :P

      Przymek is correct. To an extent.
      Under normal/usual circumstances that is.
      But the risk of electrocution is always present no matter the voltage.
      Human skin possesses a rather high electrical resistance.
      Therefore, simply touching both ends of the secondary coil will result in nothing since the voltage is low and can not surpass the resistance to flow needed to electrocute a person.
      Same reason your car battery will not shock you if you simply touch both the Positive and Negative terminals.
      But if he were to make contact with those ends while conducting his direct short experiment, his body would receive a very potential deadly current, forget the burns.
      With a car battery, merely a wrench shorting the positive and negative can result in electrocution if not death.
      Current is an under-appreciated source of danger when dealing with low voltages.
      The electrocutions and burns during first semester electronics course proved that.
      Just under 1 tenth of 1 amp is all that is needed, regardless of voltage.
      That's only 0.1 amp.
      Even a Triple A battery can produce that amount without trying.
      Touching both ends of the secondary coil while shorting them out essentially makes you part of the circuit.
      Current will then flow through you regardless of voltage. If the flow passes through the heart, consider yourself deleted.
      Hence: Risk of electrocution or death no matter the voltage.
      He lucked out with the aluminum can since he was smart and only used one hand.
      A 9-volt battery, two wires, and a touch of movie quality brutality can kill someone.
      (And no, I will not disclose how to go about doing it while imbeciles are out there eating soap while never managing to fall off of their mythical "flat earth")
      Death by electricity is always a risk, no matter what the source is.
      Do not ever underestimate it. Those who have, are no longer with us anymore.

      Unless you unlucky enough to scratch yourself, e.g. with sharp wire edges. Current kills, even a few volts with 0.2A current could be lethal. On the other end, it's perfectly safe to get zapped by thousands of volts of static electricity where current may be like 0.0001A

    • @theduder2617
      @theduder2617 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Correct. Up until the last sentence,
      While there is usually no harm aside from minor discomfort to get hit by thousands of volts with low amperage, it is by no means "perfectly safe". Contact with the right portion of your head for example, and that combination of low current high voltage will result in you receiving coloring books and a helmet for christmas from that day forward.
      Take a simple tesla coil for instance.
      It can make your hair rise, and you can reach out and give a friend a shock. But step out of that fiberglass container, then make contact with the coil.
      But I warn you, if you do, a loved one may have to plan a funeral.
      In the realm of electrons, a low number is not necessarily indicative of "safe".
      In this day and age of technology, we should be providing electrical/electronics courses at reduced or "free" (taxpayer funded) costs to those interested in the field. There is a lot of misconception out there and people are injured and killed because of it all the time.
      Plus, we need more electronic technicians in the U.S. Maybe we could make a phone worth a damn if we provided such courses. lol

    • @theduder2617
      @theduder2617 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      For a safer high voltage, low current experience, use a Van de Graaff generator. But same as the tesla coil, remain on an insulator before making contact. (fiberglass or plastic container) I prefer fiberglass as it is a better insulator than plastic.
      The following video was designed for children so bare with it. But it will show you how to make high voltage/low current SAFER to touch. Key word: safer

    • @fuguilist
      @fuguilist 8 ปีที่แล้ว +27

      Power sources like batteries do not produce current, they produce difference of potential (voltage). The current is decided by voltage and resistance in the circuit from electrode to electrode, but current is the factor that kills you. Voltage is only a consideration by itself when it's high enough to produce dielectric breakdown of unbroken skin (>500 V), and only for the reason that it produces more current because it lowers the resistance of the skin. The threshold for possible irreversible heart problems is around 30 mA, and the skin has a resistance from around 100 kΩ dry to 1 kΩ broken or wet, so 30 V is around the area you need to start applying serious caution. Other factors need to be considered (the proximity to your heart, the frequency of alternating current, etc.), but this is the simplest explanation.
